Ok I know God hates me but really the USPS had to lose my master for my 55 400 on its way to Ed Steiner. I called him today to see if it was finished only to find it never arrived nor did my $280.00 Money order.. So how do I replace a lost master guys?

You probably mean Ed Strain, not Steiner.

I would assume that USPS will eventually make good assuming it was adequately insured. You can always buy another core from Mike Dulinski who probably has an ample supply.

Yea thank god for Mike I just spoke with him.

Merritt also has lots of cores and maybe they buy from the same source.

Then there is the issue of the money order. Good luck!

Is that max merrit ?

Got my BTV back rebuilt my brakes and I've been enjoying my 55 400 all week. The post office found my btv Ed Strain rebuilt it and it seems to function well. I've read alot about the lack of travel on rebuilds and now that's the only issue. I currently have 3500.00 into this runner driver and the next part is the power windows, hoses for the heater that leak and the wipers.
